Chelsea Green showed visible frustration during the February 6 episode of WWE SmackDown after her ally Alba Fyre lost an important match. The tension began when Green competed in an Elimination Chamber qualifier against Tiffany Stratton and Lash Legend, where Stratton secured the win by pinning her. During the match, Green suffered an ankle injury, later confirmed by her wearing a cast on her foot.
As SmackDown continued that night, Green was confined to a wheelchair at ringside while Alba Fyre faced off against Tiffany Stratton in a singles match. Fyre was unable to overcome Stratton, adding to Green’s growing anger despite her physical inability to intervene due to her injury.
Injury Complications Affect Chelsea Green’s SmackDown Role
The ankle injury Green sustained during the qualifier forced her to remain sidelined and reliant on a wheelchair. This limitation came at a crucial time, as pressing issues unfolded in the ring with Alba Fyre’s defeat. Green’s frustration was palpable but she was helpless to change the outcome as her physical condition restricted her involvement.
Controversy Surrounds Chelsea Green’s WWE Position
Beyond the ring frustrations, Chelsea Green recently expressed discontent regarding comments made on the WWE Unreal reality program. During the show’s second season, Michael Hayes made remarks implying there was a “ceiling” on Green’s opportunities within WWE, a statement she found upsetting.
On the podcast Reality Checked, Green shared her reaction to hearing those limits publicly discussed without her prior knowledge.
“This really, really ruffled some feathers… It’s crazy because I’m a self-aware human being, so I know my kind of place on the totem pole in this fake hierarchy that is wrestling. But to actually hear it, to actually hear that there was a ceiling put on me, it’s different. You can’t help but be pi**ed off and a little upset and just aggravated at the fact that you thought that there was maybe a chance that there wasn’t that ceiling, that maybe it was all in your head and that it was confirmed and it wasn’t confirmed to me, it was confirmed on national television,” Green said.
